Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 421: Role

In fact, after confirming that she personally filmed "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", Charlotte realized a problem-

This version of Hermione Granger can no longer be played by Emma Watson.

No way, Emma Watson was born in 1990, and now in 1997, she is only in her early 7s.

According to the plot in the book, Hermione Granger should be 11 years old when he first appeared on the scene.

Unlike adults who are basically fixed-looking, the appearance and body of child actors change every year-the age difference of about four years can basically be said to be upside down.

Therefore, the seven-year-old Emma definitely can't play the 11-year-old Hermione in the book, and Charlotte can't wait two or three years, wait until the other party barely meets the age before shooting.

In fact, according to this logic, it is not only Emma, ​​the actor of Hermione in the original version, but also the other two in the "Gryffindor Golden Triangle". Charlotte may have to use other actors too—

No way, time and the law of human growth cannot be violated.

So, now in the primary list, Charlotte is a little surprised to see the name of Emma Watson——

"Old Gun, is this kid's age a bit—"

"She!"

Old Gun glanced at Emma's photo, and immediately reacted-it seems that the other party left a deep impression on him.

"She was not attending an audition for Hermione Granger."

"Not Hermione!?"

"Yes, it's Ginny Weasley!"

Old Gun explained.

"In the movie, do we have a plan for Ron's sister to appear?"

Charlotte asked.

The old gun shrugged.

"This is her self-recommendation, so I was so impressed with this little girl!"

"That's it. Interesting!"

Charlotte nodded.

In the original book of the "Harry Potter" series, Ginny Weasley did appear in the first "Sorcerer's Stone", although she played more roles in the second "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets." ".

However, Joanna Rowling's "The Chamber of Secrets" is still being written. At present, the future girlfriend of Harry Potter is just a small passerby character.

"Emma Watson, or her parents, will compete for the role of Ginny now. Are you sure that "Harry Potter" will be serialized?"

"It's not hard to guess."

Old Gun said with a smile,

"The original author Rowling has long revealed that she is writing a sequel, and you, as a big-name director, are preparing to make a film adaptation. In the eyes of many people, as long as the box office succeeds, "Harry Potter" is inevitable. It will become a new movie series!"

"You're right!"

Charlotte also laughed.

"And, from now on, it's not a bad thing to plan ahead. But—"

Charlotte glanced at the old gun.

"Let's pick out the most important actors first!"

***********

In the preparatory work before filming, many things such as costumes and props must be prepared in advance, but these must be determined by the actors before they can start.

So, after arriving in London, after playing with Charlize for a few days, Charlotte began to choose actors based on the list of personnel listed by the old gun——

The first decision is not the most important "Gryffindor Golden Triangle."

After all, the selection of small actors is very troublesome.

The first thing to be sure is the actors in adult roles, like Professor Dumbledore, Harry's uncle Vernon and so on.

Because in "Decapitated Valley", she worked with a group of British actors, and Charlotte directly selected several people from them.

The only thing that makes Charlotte a little regretful is that Christopher Lee, an old man, does not meet the schedule——

"Otherwise I think maybe you can play Dumbledore!"

Charlotte said to Christopher Lee.

The old man has no regrets,

"My appearance is a bit fierce. It's not easy to say whether it's appropriate to play Dumbledore. However, if you want to shoot "The Lord of the Rings," I definitely want to fight for the role of Gandalf."

"The Lord of the Rings?"

In the past two years, it is indeed rumored that the new line company is studying the possibility of launching the film adaptation of "The Lord of the Rings", and Mr. Westwood has also disclosed relevant news to Charlotte.

But Charlotte has no idea about this movie for the time being.

No way, the copyright owner of Tolkien's masterpiece is really difficult to deal with.

Moreover, Charlotte has no time to study the composition of Middle-earth.

"Leave it to Peter Jackson, who loves Tolkien!"

Charlotte originally thought so.

However, now that Christopher Lee mentioned it, Charlotte remembered that this is still a **** "Gandalf" fan.

——Although he later played the role of Saruman in "The Lord of the Rings", in fact, he most wanted to play is Gandalf.

Speaking of this, Charlotte suddenly remembered that Ian McClein, who later played Gandalf in "The Lord of the Rings", seemed to be on Dumbledore's shortlist.

"Maybe I can--"

Charlotte suddenly had an idea...

***********

Dumbledore is not the only character who encounters strange problems.

In the selection of actors for Professor Snape, the original author Rowling's suggestion made Charlotte even more dumbfounded.

"You want me to play Snape!?"

Charlotte pointed to her nose with surprise on her face.

"Joanna, didn't you say that you want the main roles to be played by British actors?"

"Hope is hope, but—"

Joanna Rowling's face was tangled,

"I originally designed the character of Professor Snape in your image!"

"..."

Charlotte was in a daze for a moment.

He really didn't expect that just because he met J.K. Rowling early, it would cause such a change.

"A writer has a big brain!"

Charlotte sighed, and suddenly realized a problem--

"Joanna~lightnovelpub.net~ I remember, Snape was shown in your book as a horror and hatred, right?"

"Yes, yes."

"And you designed him in my image—"

Charlotte glared at Rowling.

"In your mind, how do you hate me!?"

"..."

Finally, Rowling had to explain to Charlotte for a long time before the director stopped complaining about her.

In fact, Charlotte from the future naturally knows that Professor Snape is not a villain——

On the contrary, by the end of the series, the bitter experience of this life will soon be able to participate in the election of the "Top Ten People in Britain".

However, this does not affect Charlotte now complaining about Rowling.

Of course, he would not agree to play Professor Snape because of this.

——Although according to the original author Rowling, he really looks like Professor Snape in the book.

"I remember you said, "Harry Potter" this series you want to write seven parts? If you switch to filming, it is estimated that ten years of childhood will have to be spent in it-I don't have so much time to stay. Filming in the UK."

Charlotte gave the reason for her refusal,

"What's more, the habit of filming in Hollywood is that actors in their early thirties often play roles in their twenties, and actors in their thirties are often actors in their forties. From this perspective At best, I’m suitable for acting as a young Snape."

"Really? It's good for Snape in his youth!"

Joanna Rowling nodded helplessly on her face, but in her heart she began to think about adding drama to the young Snape in the follow-up book.

——So, the author can't afford to offend.
